The SHOW QUEUE command in this example displays only the queues in
which jobs are currently pending. The /ALL qualifier requests the
display of all pending jobs. Notice that you cannot see job information
for entry 936. You must have GROUP privilege to show all jobs in your
group or OPER privilege to show all jobs in all groups.

|
This SHOW QUEUE display includes the date and time at which a retained
job completed and the queue on which it executed. You can specify the
/RETAIN qualifier with the PRINT, SUBMIT, or SET ENTRY command to
specify the circumstances under which you want your job to be retained
in a queue. In this example, the user set job retention to be one hour
after job completion. Depending on the queue's job retention policy,
the job might be deleted from the queue at 16:56. (See the
PRINT, SUBMIT, or SET ENTRY command descriptions for
more information on the /RETAIN qualifier.)
SHOW QUEUE/CHARACTERISTICS
Displays information about queue characteristics defined for the
system. A characteristic is a user-defined attribute of a batch or
output queue, such as ink color.
Format
SHOW QUEUE/CHARACTERISTICS
[characteristic-name]
Parameter
characteristic-name
Specifies the name of a characteristic. The asterisk (*) and the
percent sign (%) wildcard characters are allowed. The default value for
the characteristic-name parameter is the asterisk wildcard
(*). Thus, information about all characteristics is displayed when you
do not specify a characteristic name.
You create a characteristic name with the DEFINE/CHARACTERISTIC
command. You can then assign it to a queue by using the
INITIALIZE/QUEUE, the SET QUEUE, or the START/QUEUE command with the
/CHARACTERISTICS qualifier. You can also specify characteristics for a
job by using the /CHARACTERISTICS qualifier with the PRINT, the SUBMIT,
or the SET ENTRY command.
Description
The SHOW QUEUE/CHARACTERISTICS command displays the characteristic name
and number of characteristics defined for the system. To see which
characteristics are associated with a particular queue, use the SHOW
QUEUE command with the /FULL qualifier.
Qualifier
/OUTPUT[=filespec]
/NOOUTPUT
Controls where the output of the command is sent. By default the output
of the SHOW QUEUE/CHARACTERISTICS command is sent to the current
SYS$OUTPUT device (usually your terminal). To send the output to a
file, use the /OUTPUT qualifier followed by a file specification.
The file specification may not include any wildcard characters. If you
enter a partial file specification (for example, specifying only a
directory), SHOW is the default file name and .LIS is the default file
type.
If you enter the /NOOUTPUT qualifier, output is suppressed.
Examples
#1 |
$ SHOW QUEUE/CHARACTERISTICS
Characteristic name Number
------------------- ------
BLUEINK 6
BROWNINK 25
COLOR_CHART 1
REDINK 0
TEXMAC_JOB 2
|
The SHOW QUEUE/CHARACTERISTICS command in this example displays all the
characteristics that have been defined for this system.
#2 |
$ SHOW QUEUE/CHARACTERISTICS *INK
Characteristic name Number
------------------- ------
BLUEINK 6
BROWNINK 25
REDINK 0
|
The SHOW QUEUE/CHARACTERISTICS command in this example displays the
name and number of all characteristics that end with INK.
SHOW QUEUE/FORM
Displays information about forms defined for the system. Forms define
the size and type paper and the layout of text that are used for print
jobs.
Format
SHOW QUEUE/FORM [form-name]
Parameter
form-name
Specifies the name of the form. The asterisk (*) and the percent sign
(%) wildcard characters are allowed. The default value for the
form-name parameter is an asterisk (*), which means that the
names of all forms on the system are displayed.
Description
The SHOW QUEUE/FORM command displays the name and number of forms
defined for the system. To display the attributes associated with
forms, use the /FULL qualifier.
Use the SHOW QUEUE/FORM command to find out which forms are available
on the system. To see which forms are available on one or more queues,
use the SHOW QUEUE command with the /FULL qualifier.
Form names are created by the DEFINE/FORM command. You can specify a
particular form for a print job by using the /FORM qualifier with the
PRINT or SET ENTRY command. Forms are assigned to queues with the
INITIALIZE/QUEUE, the SET QUEUE, or the START/QUEUE command.
Qualifiers
/BRIEF (default)
Displays a brief description (form names, numbers, and descriptions)
about the forms on the system.
/FULL
Displays a full description (including paper size and margin settings)
about the forms on the system.
/OUTPUT[=filespec]
/NOOUTPUT
Controls where the output of the command is sent. By default the output
of the SHOW QUEUE/FORM command is sent to the current SYS$OUTPUT device
(usually your terminal). To send the output to a file, use the /OUTPUT
qualifier followed by a file specification.
The file specification cannot include the asterisk (*) and the percent
sign (%) wildcard characters. If you enter a partial file specification
(for example, specifying only a directory), SHOW is the default file
name and .LIS is the default file type.
If you enter the /NOOUTPUT qualifier, output is suppressed.
Examples

SHOW QUEUE/MANAGERS
Provides information about the queue manager(s) on the system or
OpenVMS Cluster.
Format
SHOW QUEUE/MANAGERS [queue-manager-name]
Parameter
queue-manager-name
Specifies the name of the queue manager for which you want information
displayed. The asterisk (*) and the percent sign (%) wildcard
characters are allowed. The default value for the
queue-manager-name parameter is the asterisk (*) wildcard
character. If no queue manager name is specified, information on all
queue managers is displayed.
Description
The SHOW QUEUE/MANAGERS command displays information about the queue
manager(s) on the system or OpenVMS Cluster. The command assumes the
/BRIEF qualifier as the default, and displays a one-line description
that includes each queue manager's name, status, and process node name.
The /FULL qualifier displays the following information:
- Full file specification of the queue database master file (disk,
directory, and file name of the shared master file)
- Name of queue manager
- Status of queue manager
- The node name on which the queue manager process is running (if the
queue manager process is currently running)
- Prioritized list of nodes on which the queue manager process can run
- Disk and directory containing the queue database files specific to
the particular queue manager
If a queue manager process is not running, the current location node
name will not be displayed for that queue manager.
The queue manager status can be one of the following:
State |
Description |
Start pending
|
The queue manager process is attempting to start up, however, it is
waiting for a node on which it can run to enter the cluster.
|
Starting
|
The queue manager is in the process of starting up as a result of a
START /QUEUE /MANAGER command or failing over from another node in the
cluster.
|
Running
|
The queue manager is running.
|
Failing over
|
The queue manager is in the process of failing over to another node in
the cluster.
|
Stopping
|
The queue manager is in the process of stopping.
|
Stopped
|
The queue manager is stopped and will not start until a START /QUEUE
/MANAGER command is executed.
|
Qualifiers
/BRIEF
Displays a one-line description of queue manager(s) on the system or
cluster. The information displayed includes the name and status of the
queue manager and the node on which its process is running. The /BRIEF
qualifier is present by default.
/FULL
Displays complete information about queue manager(s) on the system or
cluster. The /FULL qualifier overrides the /BRIEF qualifier.

SHOW QUOTA
Displays the current disk quota that is authorized for a specific user
on a specific disk. This display includes a calculation of the amount
of space available and the amount of overdraft that is permitted.
Requires read (R) access to the quota file in order to display
the quotas of other users.
